Key priorities will be established for the council, stakeholders and partners, which will encourage the creative industries, cultural events and activities and participation.

Councillor Chris Mullins said: “It’s really important Crawley residents voice their opinion on this consultation; it’s the first step to improving the arts and culture in our town.

“Crawley Borough Council has run a lot consultations over the years, but this is the first to be delivered by a fortune teller booth! I encourage people to stay up-to-date with Mystic Joe’s movements through social media and to go and visit him to have your say.”

Louise Blackwell said: “Joe McAlister has created an eye-catching and engaging artwork. I can’t wait for people to meet Mystic Joe and share their thoughts with him on arts and culture. There’s a chance for everyone to have a real impact on what happens in Crawley for the coming years and I encourage you to take part.”
